I started volunteering with SB OverSeas in March, at the centre within the Ouzai refugee camp located in Saida.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even before receiving an answer for my application, I knew that I was getting myself into a tough challenge. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, I have been teaching for almost three months,\nand there are days where I still find it a challenge. Some moments are harder than\nothers. I have had moments of despondency – when I doubt my abilities and begin\nto feel disappointment and resentment towards my students\u2019 behaviour. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then, I think about the\nhardships the community and their children have been through, their day-to-day\nlives as refugees, and the emotional instability this can lead to. This has\nmade me more patient when working with them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I cross the courtyard, these same children shout out\nmy name or rush to greet me. They show smiling faces and an overflowing\nenthusiasm at every moment, and most of them prove every day in their own way\ntheir desire to learn. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our role as volunteers with SB OverSeas is to sincerely help the community, to do our best to support students in their education by using the resources available and give them attention they need to succeed. <\/p>", "protected": false }, "excerpt": { "rendered": "
